The Noisy Paint Box: The Colors and Sounds of Kandinsky's Abstract Art

About

91´«Ã½

Abstract artist Vasily Kandinsky experienced colors as sounds and sounds as colors; he created work that was bold and groundbreaking using colors from his "noisy paint box.” His process is reflected beautifully by GrandPré, whose paint flows across the page in ethereal ribbons of color.
